Double ups , 50-50, whatever you want to call them could be an exciting addition to s&gs, on other sites they often create their own atmosphere and strategy, and of course you could advertise them well to casuals on FB because "half the players win". just a thought, oh and did I mention you should fix the extremely high rake and disconnections? K thx

Double or nothing SNGs are actually quite bad, and are places that collusion reigns supreme. I actually had the same opinion you hold and felt they should implement it as well. It was in a thread that I tried to find, but couldn't track it down. With that said, other people here pointed me to articles where a team of players was stealing money through card sharing and collusion. This of course can happen with any type of internet poker, but it seems that Double or Nothing in particular was a good format for it.

As for your other statements, the disconnects are much much better than they were, but agreed, they still happen and hopefully it is still a priority with Global.

As far as rake, see the other thread as I left a comment there for you.

Agreed about the ease of collusion in these, would just have to find a way to make sure it doesnt happen

Yeah please don't add double ups. Asking for collusion.

This is horsecrap yes there is collusion and double ups can be colluded in like all other forms. Im a reg at the 50$ DON on ignition and have played 10's of thousands and review my HH's on every game and yes there has been collusion but no more then other formats. Please add these games if you dont like them dont play them. Same thing with HU sngs why these havent been added I dont understand its not as bad as chip dumping at cash game HU games and will attract a ton more of players.

I would agree with the idea if you are afraid of the collusion then don't play. And there can be collusion in other forms of poker even live poker.

I just wish I could find my old thread where some links were put up where some good arguments were made for why DnGs were in particular bad. If I find the time, I will do a deep dive through the threads.

I think they are against the HUSNGs for chip dumping reasons, its why the closed the cash tables as well.

DONs will not attract a "ton" of players.
